#like take that into account when analyzing their relationship ig

omg i keep forgetting that people who think abigail is abusive are real. im gonna have a stroke

"she hits him" i played rdr1 and i saw that scene. dude she was play-hitting him she was being playful like *smacksmacksmack* "where've you been huh? where've you been?"

like idk that scene didnt exactly sound at all abusive to me bc shes also making sure john wasnt convinced by bill/javier/dutch to be an outlaw again and tear the family apart

and about the occasional "nagging" ..... i think john doesnt mind that too much ha

edit: and the slapping in the early chapters of rdr2 does not count bro it was deserved (and also slapping is the least of that guys worries at that point)

love notes

part 0.2. BACKSTABBING BITCH

“can i see you tonight? can i see you tomorrow? i want to be your friend. i wanna be more than that. will you love me tomorrow?”

from can i see you tonight? by eyedress, left at calmaart, sakai

° ᡣ𐭩 . ° . present day. ° ᡣ𐭩 . ° .

prev. | m.list | next

extras <3

i'm sorry i feel like the pacing of everything is a little convoluted,, there's not really a lot of timeskips. basically everything after this chapter is also in present day but i just wanted to make that clear <3 and hopefully the intros really clarifies how everyone's relationships changed, for example suna and y/n going from never talking to hanging out more <3

calmaart is a place in japan for street art supplies and clothing with a legal graffiti wall <3

IF YOU WERE HERE FOR THAT STUPID POLL I DID OVER "A" OR "MY" WHERE "MY" WON BUT I CHOSE "A" ANYWAY AND HAD AN ENTIRE CRISIS OVER IT THAT WAS FOR THIS CHAPTER (suna's "you're an angel") BUT THEN THIS ALSO LED TO ONE OF MY FIRST INTERACTIONS WITH @froyaoya WHO HELPED ME THRU THAT ENTIRE CRISIS SO IT WAS A GOOD THING IN THE END IG <3

both y/n and suna are typically people that use their priv accounts for the majority of their tweets. yn uses her public account for mostly photography to maintain an image of professionalism and suna mainly uses his public account for pictures of art and volleyball related things

suna is on yn's private because she lets all of her close friends onto it but she isn't on suna's because he told her it's mainly just the volleyball boys cursing each other out (which is true but most of all he was just scared to have her on it in case he tweeted about her)

y/n definitely skips school to have more available openings in her schedule for photography bookings

whenever she's taking pictures of a couple and they're not looking, she'll take a picture of them and send it to a groupchat with akaashi and kenma and ask if they think the couple's gonna make it or not

they'll spend hours analyzing the red and green flags

omi's the captain of the msby vball team BC I SAID SO

suna asked if he could leave practice early "to study for a test"

they have the same major and omi was like "we don't have an upcoming test."

suna played it off as retaking a previous test he hadn't done well on and omi could no longer be bothered and let him go

suna often stays until closing when he visits y/n at work and will walk her home <3

atsumu and oikawa work together well but in the beginning they had a bit of a rivalry, both being well known setters and they've just kind of continued to be slightly passive aggressive towards each other but get along for the most part

atsumu was locked in the bathroom for an hour until bokuto asked oikawa if they could let him out so he could shower

also not sure if i've said this but everyone is in their second year of college (not super important but just to avoid future plot holes)

Watched Ep 10 (S06) and I'm pissed. So here's my thoughts.

(Spoilers obv)

1. Rick feels so entitled to Morty's love and respect, but refuses to reciprocate. I get that he DID make Morty a robot version of himself to take his place to be loving and so forth, but it makes me believe that he would have actually pulled a Vat of Acid again if he didn't make the robot 22% more supporting of Morty's ideas, etc.

2. I hated that the entire family didn't bother to actually acknowledge that Morty wasn't there when they were having soem family bonding time, it genuinely frustrates me that they don't care about Morty at all. (Reminds me of that one episode, I think it's Total Rickall, where Beth had to pick between Summer and Morty to keep alive and didn't even think before picking Summer).

3. The president was honestly one of my favorite characters cause of the homoerotic relationship he has with Rick, but seeing him be an ass to Morty changed my mind on him. Like, that's a kid, you just watched him break down in front of you because he's having the worst Christmas ever, and you *stole* his present? I get that he's the president and he's supposed to be like corrupt and all, but I kinda liked how stupid and petty he is towards Rick (cause he's infected with the gay™), but of course they had to have him be mean to Morty.

4. Is Morty in the wrong? I don't feel so, because he's just trying to stand up for himself and is being shut down by Rick constantly. I do understand Rick's frustration, that he became vulnerable and realized that the family would take advantage of that (Analyze Piss), and that he didn't like that Morty just didn't listen to his warning (not to take the sword), but Rick doesn't have the right to be an asshole to Morty. Rick was vulnerable and got taken advantage of, and I understand why he's upset about it, but Morty's just a kid and of course he's going to rebel against Rick, throughout the series, Rick hasn't been the best grandfather out there.

Rick is changing and growing as a person, yet he constantly plays the victim without taking his actions into accountability. He hurts Morty all the time, but because Morty called him boring, he's going to make a robot version of himself and hide in the basement whilst trying to find Rick Prime.

5. Jerry was so adorable tbh, it's not related to anything, but his pajamas, wanting who he thought was Rick to cut the ham, it was so sweet, he's so precious

6. Last thing, idk why, but the show has been littered with Star Wars references. I know it's not that big oc an observation, but the fact they constantly say how shit Star Wars is, but make full episodes based on the franchise is kinda funny, but idk how to feel about it. Just... wanted to mention it ig.

[futuregws]

No but for real fans need to take a real step back and analyze their parasocial relationships with the drivers (currently it’s seems to be especially Charles & Arthur)

Fans are not part of their relationships!

We don’t know when they broke up, we don’t know when they started dating someone new and we shouldn’t even care if cheating was involved or not because we aren’t part of these relationships. And I get majorly sight-eyeing cheating but even then we still aren’t part of this relationship.

We only know what was or wasn’t shared on social media. And the things some fans dig up that border on stalking … 🙃

And since they don’t share every minute of they day, every meal, every grocery shopping trip, every time they went to the bathroom we only know a small part of their lives. And we really shouldn’t try to pry into their private lives especially their own personal relationships. Cause People really got too comfortable snooping around other people’s private lives. I even understand gossip, a bit of mindless gossip is fun (like the Alsonso/ Taylor Swift thing at the start of the season) but so many take it way too far and actually take some gossip as fact.

Also this specific kind of fangirls need to understand that they do not matter! I’ve read so many IG gossip accounts & their anonymous submissions going all „oh no Charles changed! He only cares about money! He’s no longer who I thought he was! He’s a horrible (insert current new buzzword they learnt)! See even his driving is suffering because he’s dating Alex!“

and more bla bla & than you have fans who meet the guy, other TP‘s, presenters, journalists and other actual important people praising him, saying that he’s a great sportsman, driver & person & and genuine friendly guy. But sure him dating someone new makes him a horrible person & that’s why he’s loosing races & will apparently loose his career 🙄

Yup. I understand being upset if the celeb you like so much cheats on their partner, bc cheating is disgusting, but it's different when you don't even know if cheating happened, they think it did bc of the narrative they created in their heads but when there's nothing to back that up and it's purely fictional basically, to then go and hate on people for it is on a whole other level of weird. And I feel like one of the biggest victims of this is Charles and what they call him ever since he broke up with Charlotte and got with Alex, and now it's shifting over to Arthur, Idk what people's obsession is with trash talking the Leclercs but geez do they need to get a fucking life

[outrunningthedark]

Welpppp there are already people speculating that C logged into Rs account to like that post on her unfiltered account ☠️ (why she would have access still now if she ever did at all, now that they broke up, idk but, those fans gotta have drama some way)

This ask goes in line with what one of my nonnies said the other day re: Buddie shippers using the same "there's only one way to interpret this" logic when "analyzing" the exes' actions. One wouldn't have to suggest or assume that she logged in to his account if a like didn't automatically (internally) translate to confusion over the state of things. Just like him following the "repair the relationship" guy, there IS a possible explanation for why he did it, and it has nothing to do with wanting to stay together or in contact! I've said it many times over the last few months, but if people were around for the many public fights prior to the first split in the spring, they would have come to understand that he takes what she throws at him and tosses it right back. In fact, we already went through this with the "dead ends" caption and some people were confused back then, too, because "Would he really like a post that was dissing him?" Uh, yeah. I think we figured that out by how quickly he erased (most of) her from his IG and then called her "the mother of my children" on Mother's Day, which didn't stop any of the gossip from circulating. Miss G trying to sound "enlightened" with her captions is her preferred method of acting unbothered. HIS is posting with family and friends and taking the time to "co-sign" her opinions if she happens to catch him on a bad day. Is that the smartest idea if the goal is to remove yourself from a less than healthy environment? No, not at all. But he has to deal with this woman for the rest of their lives, really, and these incidents are going to pop up from time to time unless they *both* actually make an effort to be civil for the sake of the kids. (Step one: Get the hell off the internet if you know it could "trigger" a response.)

introductory post <3

hiii, my name is celeste! I just made this account last night and I want to introduce myself to all who stumble upon my page. I am really new to Tumblr only gracing onto it every so often, so please spare me some patience as I try to figure out the algorithm, mechanics, and layout of this platform! With that out of the way, let's get on with it <3

Like I said earlier, my name is celeste. I go by all pronouns but I tend to stick with she/her since that is what I am addressed as most of the time. I don't label my gender tbh since it's pretty fluid, but I tend to learn more towards the feminine side of the spectrum. I am pansexual, I don't have any preference when it comes to gender.

my birthday is July 26 and below this is my birth chart. I have tropical position calculation and whole sign house system on this chart because personally I find them to be the most accurate and straightforward. Feel free to analyze it if you want!

I tried to research the myer-briggs personalities (not just take the 16 personalities quiz LMAO) and see which one I am and I belief I am an INFJ. I am pretty sure I am a 3w4 for my enneagram type. I wish I could say wether or not I am introverted or extroverted, but I can't tell because honestly I might just have social anxiety. My instinctual variant is sx/so I believe.

I live in america in the south east coast area. I am still in high school and intend on going to college, perhaps becoming a lawyer or something in business, idrk it's tbd honestly. I go to private now, but before high school, I had always gone to public. The only reason I switched is because I wanted a better education and more targeted environment. I realized a lot of people switch over because they were bullied or like geniuses who were too good for public school, but I just wanted to because I fell in love with the school.

I play soccer, used to do cross country, and plan on starting lacrosse sometime this year. I have been always involved in athletics, practically my whole life. Recently I have been feeling major burnout with soccer, so I hope lacrosse is fun for me!

my family is okay relationship-wise, in my teenage years, they have been hit-or-miss. my mom is a stay-at-home mom and my dad is military, we were lucky we didn't have to move around as much as some other folk but that was because my dad would leave by himself most of the time, but the major move we had to do was leave my home town of 9 years (age 3 to 12) to a new place and where we currently live. It was weird because we moved while I was in middle school, from where I knew everyone in the school bc it was a such a small town and where I grew up to a big city where I knew nobody in the angstiest years of our lives, the dreaded pre-teens. I also have a sister we used to be close, but we went to different high school and she just graduate so whatever.

I drabble a little bit in spirituality and magick, but I am very well a beginner. If knowledge of the spiritual was a body of water, I am not just-dipped-my-toes-in-the-pool beginner, but more like I am sitting at the edge with my feet in the water, waiting for the temp to warm up before getting in further beginner yk? So maybe intermediate ig? I would consider myself a witch and I can't wait to learn more!

cw: afterlife philosophy! (skip this next paragraph is the concept of death makes you uncomfortable or you have a belief system in place where you don't feel comfortable listening to someone else <3)

My opinions on the afterlife and the universe are kind of conflicting? I believe in the spiritual while I incorporating science as well (this isn't why I think my beliefs are conflicting btw just a general consensus ig, just because my beliefs are fluid) my beliefs are the universe is at least semi-sentient being. I believe everything is made of energy and is apart of a huge universal cycle. I believe when we die our energy is released and just like the water cycle or rock cycle, there is many paths our energy can take and there isn't a set one. I believe energy can do many things after death, like disperse with no direction among the universe, join to an objects or persons energy, recycle into another body like in reincarnation, collect in a certain area as a form of heaven or whatever, stay in the death place as a ghost, transverse dimensions or realities, perform many of these options, or none, etc. I believe even things we wouldn't consider like touchable or observable have energy, like things we wouldn't consider 'real'. Like I believe that every god, every devil, every entity, every person, every fictional character, every place, every object have energy and existence (even if its not a physical one, or observable) because the universe is giving it energy. what I mean by this is for example, people in the world believing in the christian god makes it real because all that energy is amassing for that concept. To be 'real' is hard to define because what makes me more real than someone else? (I try to incorporate the multiverse theory here as well) What if this person existed in another reality where I do not, what happens then? who is more real at that point? Moving on from that, I actually don't have a belief on the origins of our universe tbh, besides the obvious scientific explanation of the Big Bang. In this case I mean more of like a reason and not a cause, like why we came about and by who/what? It hard to wrap my head around nothingness void to the whole expanding infinite universe. My beliefs after the start of the universe is that is when matter and energy were introduced and is when everything was created. From then all that energy has recycled, for example my beliefs on soul: I believe that at the beginning of the universe a set number of souls were made of like pure *soul energy*, as time has gone on souls have changed and transferred, like split original souls are what makeup soul mates, souls that have picked up an objects or places energy are what make people drawn to certain things in life, or soul energy being lost among the universe is what makes seemingly inanimate have 'human'-like qualities, or how some people have the same energy as someone else is just made up of some of their soul energy or their energy comes from like a similar area in the universe, etc. It just gives you a lot to think about yk? I believe the consciousness is extremely powerful and I believe in the law of assumption, it plays on 'I think therefore I am'. It bases itself on the question can somebody prove they are conscious to you, like can it be proven that you and me are conscious in the same way. The answer to that is no, you can't prove it, because anything they come up as evidence can easily be disproven by your own brain. LOA plays on everybody is you pushed out, as in (my interpretation) your consciousness is apart of every person you encounter, every object, every concept, every aspect of your life is shaped by yourself, as in the way you perceive it and assumptions you have around it since you are the only 'prove-able' thing in existence. Your reality is shaped by you, this is why every afterlife belief is correct in my eyes because you assume it is, then creating your reality. Yet even after this, after all my calming explanation of death not being the end of your journey, I am still scared of death, ironic.

[waynedunlaptheorgandonor]

can i say a sort of pointless rambly thing i was thinking about that i can't put under the cut bc i'm on mobile?

jk, i'm not actually asking. ramble below, not edited for clarity. the following is completely unclear and i will not fix it:

i've been thinking about how part of the reason i'm so chill about caryl is bc growing up as a queer woc 99% of my main ships were like, never gonna fucking happen bc they literally couldn't. it was like, "omg, they gazed at each other from across the room, let's analyze the homosexual subtext of this one scene for the next fifty years, that's not necessarily hyperbole." i've watched all my ships fuck other ppl/have other love interests, and i knew that my thing was never gonna be canon, so to see like, one thing being like, "one half of my ship fucked another person several years ago while pining for the other half of my ship," i'm like...#nice, bc that can and likely will be used as a plot point to get them together later on, whereas in other situations i've been in i just kinda had to deal with it. so my impulse when i see ppl losing their shit is to be like

and to be slightly annoyed, tbh, bc the ship is still on track to be canon, and it's like, literally two white heterosexuals, they're prime candidates for juicy angsty pining that actually gets a resolution.

but!

that being said, i recognize that that attitude isn't necessarily fair. for one thing, i'm not the only queer woc (or some variation thereof) in this fandom, and some ppl's impulse might be exasperation instead, bc like, "wtf, even my mayohet ship has dumb fucking drama," and that's valid as hell, and i get it.

and also, i get that, even if you didn't grow up shipping impossible ships (or mulder/scully, bc that's a brand of bullshit all its own), this has been a suuuuper drawn out process where sometimes it feels like they're legit sprinkling crumbs to keep you hooked, just to play you again, and when you are invested in something, like /rly/ invested, especially if it's a form of escapism or hyperfixation or whatever, that can be e x h a u s t i n g. and i get that. i truly do, and while i make a lot of snide comments about the fandom being bonkers, i do get where the bulk of you are coming from (unless you're one of those ppl who hate on actors and esp actresses for just doing their jobs, and attack them on social media, in which case i am very much judging you and you need to get your life together).

i also realize that in the scheme of things i'm still a newbie. i've been here, what, twoish/threeish years, whereas some of you have been here since the beginning, so i'm not as worn out as y'all. but i also think that gives me a bit of objectivity that some of y'all have (understandably) lost.

my positivity is not meant as a sleight against those of you who are feeling negative, but is more of a semi-objective viewpoint (i say semi, bc lbr, i'm invested af in this, so i definitely have bias), and to me the threads of the storyline they're crafting seem sort of obvious.

like, let's look at it, yeah? they have one season left of this show that has been on for over a decade. they need to cater to everyone to give them a satisfying ending, while still hanging on to carylers bc of the spin-off. darylrreah seems like a very calculated move, bc it gives them both something to make abcers happy, while also creating tension and suspense and pining for carylers (i think they might underestimate just how fed up some carylers are tbh, and are banking on us to hang on for one last ride, which, honestly? if they play it right will probably work.)

if they end up doing a dumb love triangle thing, which, without seeing the episode and gauging the subtext i can't confidently say if i think they will or won't, it will ultimately end in our favor. it has to, bc leah isn't going to third wheel them on the bike in the spin-off. we can say with good authority that whatever that relationship ends up being (again, idk if they'll drag it out or not) it will be temporary. which leaves caryl open to ride off into the sunset and then bone down in every state in the united states and in puerto rico for good measure.

it's a lot of cheap drama, but i really and truly do not think it's anything to worry about, and i still really and truly trust kang to not make it out of character. ik ppl still don't agree with me on that point, and i'm not gonna argue, but to me it really does make perfect sense.

and i also predict that they are gonna play it up hardcore in the promotional shit and talking dead, but when that happens, remember it's bc it gets attention. regardless of where the story is ultimately going, relationship drama gets attention, which gets viewers, which gets amc and twd producers nice and comfy with full pockets

idk. to sum up ig i just wanted to clarify that i don't mean any harm with my relentless positivity. my history in fandom has just made this seem like nothing in comparison, bc while ppl are freaking out, i'm like, "oh damn, they're actually gonna get together by the end of this, aren't they? i didn't know that could happen!" and that makes me excited instead of upset

and you definitely don't have to listen to me. maybe i'm actually wrong. maybe i'm completely full of bullshit and am just good at making things sound confident. i got a lot of As on papers in college over books i never read, i know how to bs. but i also know how to analyze, and i while i will be the first to tell you i am not the best at a great many things, i do know that i am good at critically analyzing text while taking into account the context it was written in, and imho all signs point to canon caryl. when, i'm not entirely sure, but i see it happening. if it doesn't then they severely fucked up their storytelling, and that'd just be bad writing on their part.

(if you want proof that i'm good at reading writers'/producers' intentions, consider that i watched like, 8 seasons of supernatural before giving up, and said to myself, "i think they're gonna make destiel canon, but not until the very last second bc they are rly into catering to their fans but also have to consider their dumb fanboy audience so they can't do anything crazy overtly gay," and guess who hit the nail on the fucking head on that one)

none of this is important, but it was rattling around my mind grapes and i wanted to write it down into something vaguely coherent, and where else better to do it than here. i can word vomit and then send it into the ether and pretend i never said a thing. i love this horrible website, nothing can compare

i have no real conclusion to this, it was mostly stream of consciousness, but i hope it sort of helps y'all understand where i'm coming from, and why i am as chill as i am about things. not about y'all. y'all cause me so much anxiety i get physically sick and have to legit block tags, but with the actual show content i'm zen as hell

uh

the end ig?

it feels weird even signing off on this, but w/e

-diz

[hockeygossip101]

Hii! I saw that the topic that mat has changed since he is in his relationship with maya was taken up again and the other day a friend told me something that made me very interesting, She told me that she believes that when we all have a boyfriend or girlfriend we change a little (it does not mean that you change or lose all your essence as a person) But if the influence of the other person influences how you behave with them and sometimes with other people in your circle by the amount of time you spend with them, In fact it also happens with friends, if we are observant when we make new friends we sometimes imitate certain things about them, I could say that it works in a similar way 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don't know, I just wanted to mention it since it was interesting to analyze it that way :)

Hey! That is a really interesting take on it so thank you for sharing :)

I feel like that's very true and in a way I feel like Mat is still trying to impress Maya and trying to fit in with all her friends because I think he's been hanging out with them since he's posted a lot of her friend's accounts. It sounds like a nice gesture ig? It has to be pretty similar because other rub of on you!

[mc-slowwalker]

hahahahha that’s funny lol (saying that the author of the common enemy fics is c!dream) but yeah common enemy definitely won’t fix the issues cause it’s the cycle of violence that they have to break and that definitely will not be fixed easily

woooo syndicate supremacy (I’ve finally learned how to spell syndicate correctly through our conversation lol) they’re definitely doing better than other people on the server and I love that for them! oh yeah either or both c!tommy and c!dream definitely need to reflect on the fact that they’re both make eachother worse. I absolutely loved how that fic handled that aspect of it because closure and freedom is exactly what I want for c!dream and c!tommy more than anything. yeah exactly!! which is why I don’t like the idea of c!dream dying either cause it just leaves everything unresolved. I doubt that’ll happen in canon tho

yea!! can’t wait for the angst! cc!wilbur just posted on reddit about ghostbur so we’ve already got some more of it 😔✌️which also reminds me that I’m sooo interested to see how c!dream is like once he’s out of prison because so much of the fandom believes different thing and there’s no way that he’s gonna be better or changed cause he’s had no opportunity to plus he’s been through terrible torture for so long and I can’t wait to see the effect of that. which also reminds me that I’ve seen lately that a lot of the fandom seems to think that c!dream was put in the prison as a punishment when it was less about that and more about the fact that he could revive people and that his last canon life would have been taken if not for that fact. a lot of the fandom says he deserves the prison but not the torture as a punishment but that’s not why he was put in the prison and if that was the case literally every other character would deserve the same punishment as well as they’re all characters that have done bad things. I feel like my typing is just getting more and more rambly and less and less well punctuated lol sorry

oh yeah those fandom rules definitely make sense. especially as someone who has been in online fandom spaces for like a long time and has seen all the tumblr discourse lol. like yeah those rules were actually not bad and don’t send death threats or harass people shouldn’t have to be said as much as it is in mcyttwt. I really do wish that the young people in this fandom realise that they’re allowed to just have fun and do what they like in fandom

I think that taking into account the fact that a character is a minor is definitely important I just disagree with the way that a lot of people use it as such a final argument that doesn’t leave room for discussion. yeah I’m the same like when I was younger I used to think I was so grown up but like I’m 18 now and I realise that that’s still so young even though at 18 I’m an adult. basically like the “child” argument is not so black and white either like instead of a defence I think it’s more something that should be taken into account when discussing a characters actions and I definitely agree with the characters you’ve added as people who that can be extended to. and yeah like in real life the minors would face soo many more consequences it’s kind of funny like everyone would but with it being such a prominent topic of discussion it’s funnier applying real life rules to dsmp is often so funny. I agree c!tommy should 100% pay taxes that would be hilarious

ooh yeah the three life system interesting cause at first glance you’d think it makes them worth less but evidently not and I do wonder how the characters see it. like you said with c!foolish and c!puffy it was traumatic to take a first life but for some it just seems as chances and the last life is what actually matters. who it’s against and also circumstance I think matters. I also tend to brush off c!tommy taking two of c!dream’s lives but I also tend to brush off the canon lives lost during the first l’manburg war as it was war and c!dteam and co were just better. I suppose I’m an everything but l’manburg apologist because of its foundations ig although I can still understand and acknowledge it’s importance to the characters such as c!tommy. I’ve seen it said that c!dream deserves prison because he took two of c!tommy’s canon, amongst other reasons of course, but so many other characters have taken canon lives and how do you determine the consequence of that in the dsmp cause in irl it’s very different and in the dsmp so far there really is no consequence for murder. like for example c!punz took two of c!wilburs canon lives (I stan him for that I’m a punz simp what can I say) and other characters have taken canon lives too. hmm I wonder what determined the severity of crimes on the dsmp cause the one character that’s in prison wasn’t actually put in there for his crimes.

hahahaha yeah I just can’t wait till we finally don’t have to reach that much

ahaha fair enough I just sometimes type too fast and autocorrect never seems to know what I want to say and I do not have the brain power to proof read a single thing I write. also I type out the asks in notes and after I sent the last one I was like damn that was really long and pasted it into pages to check. and oh my god this one is over a thousand words that’s like longer than one of essays I wrote for my philosophy final exam😭😭 I am so sorry

I will say though that I am quite enjoying this discussion cause it’s the most in depth discussion I’ve been able to have about this

I saw the angst wilbur put on reddit that mother fucker (affectionate) I actually have a rewlly weird relationship with wilbur’s meta lore. Things I accept: sally is a salmon, fridge mom, all the characters being morally gray. Things I don’t accept: whatever he was trying to do with character ages, also saying revivebur was straight when c!tommy saw him and quackity making out like nice try king. One of my biggest issues with the sever is that I get so easily attached to mobs/npcs in dream smp and they die so easy so Im always sobbing,,,, if anything happens to shroud, yogurt, michael (notchill), or fran I’ll mcfucking lose it

For c!dream getting out of prison I see there being only two routes: 1. he’s worse by a lot more evil more fucked up or 2. He’ll be actually too fucked up/tired/traumatized to do shit. Either of which is gonna hurt the sever so I’m looking forward to it personally

Other real life things I think should be implemented into dream smp: jury duty, required 3 life insurance, dentsits, and OSHA

I do think the rebellion against c!dream (in the final control room) is really interrsting in that c!tommy/c!punz was about to organize a bunch of the server against dream? I know c!tommy has amazing puppy eyes tm but c!punz was able to organize a big group of people, half of them didn’t really have that much against dream (other than the l’manburg people) and were only there on more vague terms. Like c!hbomb and c!ponk really didn’t have shit against dream but still helped in getting him into prison

I feel like we’re always gonna have to reach a little bit and oh shit 1,000 words? Bruh half my classes require that and I have yet to actually right that much. it’s way easier with stuff you’re passionate about and with all the content dream smp has gives way more to analyze

Christian Yu - Brief Look ⬇️

Sun/Moon opposition with Virgo/Pisces, talent triangles between his Scorpio Pluto/Capricorn Saturn (and outer planets)/Virgo Sun/Mercury - Gemini Mars AND Leo Venus that’s inconjunct to his Pisces Moon wow!! 💓💗💞💓💗💞

So I’ll walk you through, notice his Virgo Sun/Mercury and Gemini Mars? They’re squares but that also means he’s amazing at relaying his thoughts/personal opinions (esp. with combust mercury) even though it frustrates him sometimes. He probably does his best, or constantly try to strive for his best at self-expression even though it frustrates him to come back and think about it. At certain times, because it’s in opposition to his Pisces Moon (that seems to be a bucket handle/singleton) he may often process this emotionally. Virgo/Pisces can be quite hard on themselves, but with time (i’m sure he’s learnt) that self-management helps him work through his mental state better. More so than that, the re-occuring theme Virgo/Pisces (anyone else with this) has to look out for is the sudden anxiety of coming back online or feeling the need/obligation to do so for others. Dependability even when - like, when they were doing it, they think ‘hey this is nothing like what i was worried about lol it’s actually v relaxing/fun to do!’ - or just, y know meeting someone for the first time in a while can make them anxious because there’s expectations they set on themselves to do well. However, he DOES have a Leo Venus/Gemini Mars and Capricorn Saturn - so what this does is quell some of the anxiety a bit- like ‘ah fuck it! let’s just do it!’ tends to help a lot with cardinally getting shit done. I mentioned Leo Venus/Gemini Mars bc they’re squared- talking about action, the idea of just doing something and getting it done provided also by Capricorn Saturn - trusting in the security/stability of what was already established- tends to help with that mutable energy/anxiety once you’ve tuned in on how to use it! 💓💗💞

For those who may - also- suffer from mutable anxiety- literally just do something and keep an open-mind. Things will turn out for the better, tune into that flippable energy that allows you to be on your toes and handle a situation as it comes. There is less of a chance of a situation that you won’t know how to handle than there is one where you can work it out on the fly. AND it turning out better than over-thinking it! If you suffer from your mouth being loose and regretting it later - turn that emotional shame/embarrassment into a conscious goal - like a thought - ‘ok im NOT going to do that next time and be conscious of doing THIS instead, as it sets my foot on the right path and THEN i can run with it’ -- this can tend to help adopt a better habit/routine and ALSO make you utilize YOUR energy in an efficient way!! 

Ok so, back to him. Virgo/Pisces sun-moon. Let’s get it. I don’t think his Leo Venus would? allow him to think about these things consciously. Being true to himself is key (more about that later) but underlying everything/decisions -  there’s a core/stem of - Is he doing enough? Is it emotionally true? Is he being sincere/genuine or was it him striving for practicality/reality of the situation? Pisces Moon has a sensitive touch to self-expression, so these things ‘ringing true’ or somewhat ‘true’ gives him the emotional releases he needs. If it doesn’t - then occasionally it’ll drive the person up the wall with how ‘genuine’ (or calling themselves ‘disingenuous’) they’re being (or striving to be). They want to do their best, and with that Virgo in mind, he’s probably constantly trying to perform his best no matter if it’s in his daily life or something else.

Another cool thing to note is also Virgo/Leo in a person- they tend to be more ‘ah fuck it’ about certain things. A problem they can’t solve (on paper/text-book?) even with research? Take a break. It’ll come. There’s solutions to stuff, but with the practicality of Virgo and with the instinctive self-assessment of Leo - they can APPEAR to be something but is actually rather chill and laid-back about it. Certain things that people drive themselves up the wall over- they tend to learn life-lessons and in not over-stressing themselves, and trying to find the best/practical solution instead (think efficient not hard) - even if that Leo can be lazy but ALSO work hard when it FEELS like it wants to.  

That ties into Leo Venus now, with Leo Venus squaring Gemini Mars (even though it’s out of sign) - he may strive to be a person who walks the walk, not just talk the talk. This is more of a personal goal/attention in detail to keep in mind- from like, an internal point of view. This Leo Venus can talk about desire to be true to the self, and if it’s squaring Gemini Mars- sometimes it may feel like what he’s saying doesn’t completely align- unless he’s obstinate enough to think he believes in what he says and roll with the punch/oblivious to it anyways. And thus working on perfecting that, remedying or contributing to saying what it is he can back up is important. Not just this- but with Capricorn Saturn trine to his Sun/Mercury - he has his head set in building a sincere, concrete and reliable ‘realness’ in his personality and public respect. Self-expression IS key, especially with Leo/Pisces in his personal placement and luminary. Most likely, it’s about the intuition and does it ‘feel’ right part of himself that can drive him forward. As that Pisces is also his bucket handle, and thus everything he does - all of his placements, as assessed/have to pass through that Pisces Moon in order for it to express itself openly. 

Integrity is also a key thing for Leo Venus especially, considering Venus talks about relationships and other people. Seeing this in others is important, the idea of walking the walk and talking the talk. Certain people who only flaunts/talks about certain things, or are one-dimensional in their ideas/thinking can be frustrating to be around. Especially with someone who has Capricorn Saturn, Virgo Sun/Mercury, Scorpio Pluto aspected to those two and a Leo Venus. Show off your colors but care more about the things underneath, whats the idea underneath it and does it shine through in their self-expression? There’s genuinity that drives him forward, as well as intellectual property of something- it’s potential/what to do with it. These things are important, and it’s what ‘dazzles’ the Leo Venus to be attracted to these ideas/concept because it allows space for them to share these things with like-minded or people they can communicate with on a ‘real’ level. But these are - y know- people, so it’s hard to find and also very circumstantial!!! 

Anyways. More about him. Capricorn Saturn. Being treated and trusted as someone who is stable/credited as genuine or real to the best of his ability/what he perceive is lacking from others/the world is important. And often with Virgo Sun/Mercury - relaying it down into words/written can often help with that. It’s also a part of a talent triangle he has. It aspects his Capricorn Uranus/Neptune as well - but I’ll talk about Saturn since it’s? more of an impact/important. 

Capricorn Saturn/Virgo Sun-Mercury we talk about realness right? Reputable, doesn’t matter if it’s a slow start as long as it’s genuine and built by their own genuinity and sincerity. Scorpio Pluto adds to this with it’s sextile position to both of these placements - sometimes it’s about seeing/analyzing and observing what IS lacking from the ‘truth’ of the world and making sure the Capricorn/Virgo adds influence to that. The fire venus certainly adds to it’s flame- wanting to show it’s genuine desire to be ‘it self’ (and is itself, but more importantly to be accepted as itself) - whilst Gemini Mars is the outlet- keeps it on the toes, on his feet. Working on it. Say what’s need to be said, sometimes- unexpectedly or without realizing the consequences. BUT it’s sextile to Jupiter in Leo - thus, it probably often works out. When it’s said with the subtext of teaching someone how to be truer to themselves or self-expression. 

There’s a strive/desire to make changes happen coming from that talent triangle, Scorpio Pluto as the apex working with his Virgo Sun/Mercury’s natural talent and focus on those desires. If you can imagine- if Scorpio Pluto focuses and zooms into perspectives/pov at hand, analyzes and collects what needs to be done with it - then this sextile to the Virgo Sun/Mercury helps form a clearly analytically strong- and often opinionated/constructive thought/expression in order for it to be expressed out into the world. They’re often intelligent, but also tends to not - notice or realize this about themselves? Things closer to the Sun are often blinded by it’s light. The Ego can often make things personal without one realizing it’s tied to it. Changes happens, whether it’s in his expression or something else. Because it affects other people’s lives as well, perhaps those in need (Capricorn/Leo honestly) 

But.. yeah!  💓💗💞 That’s all I have for now.. here’s the chart I pulled up to use below, no birthtime ;; but yes! 💓💗💞 Sorry I don’t -- know him well so I can’t speak much specifically on what? he does or something. But I hope this is ok!! 💓💗💞 Thanks for asking! 💓💗💞

Why the thought of Jikook together is ridiculous? (a rant by me)

Gosh, there are so many things I find incredible about this whole ship thing. I’ve so much to say sometimes I even confuse myself and wonder what I’m even doing with my life.

This specific topic had been on my mind for quite some time and, as I get more and more into jikookland and in the deep black hole that is shipping, I find myself questioning a lot of what is said, what is speculated, what is believed and what is looked down with a frown and disbelief.

I consider myself a Jikook shipper, (though I’ve come to find a lot o people in the fandom don’t like to call themselves that way, but I really don’t see why we need to find new ways of creating rifts between us). So, needless is to say I, at least, find the thought of Jimin and Kookie together incredibly adorable and attractive. But that isn’t the reason I ship them.

The thought of any BTS ship is incredibly adorable and attractive. When I first got into them and later into this shipping thing, I went there with an open mind but very mindful and conscious that it was only for fun and, for the most part out of boredom. I was careful not to take any of it seriously, of believing any of them were real, that any of the boys were in fact attracted in a romantic way to each other or were in love with each other.

I can’t exactly know why, when or how, but, even before I became a BTS stan or knew anything about BTS or Kpop in general, I’ve had this idea that the way the members interacted with each other would different from the western way, the way I was accustomed to.

As I said, I don’t know why I had that perception or how it came to be. But anyways, with that thought in mind, the first ship video I’d seen was actually from Jikook. Curious, cause from what I tend to read and hear most of the shippers claim Vkook was the first ship they’d come in contact with. But with me it was the opposite.

It was randomly that I came across a video of jikook, and I remember it had been one of them flirting for 5/10 (I can’t remember exactly) minutes straight. I gotta be honest and say I wasn’t very impressed. Not because the moments weren’t cute and sometimes brow lifting, but because, as I mentioned: 1) it wasn’t my intention to take this ship thing seriously, and 2) I was aware or had an inkling the way they interacted with each other would be different from what I was used to. So obviously, even though the moment that got stuck in my head to this day about that specific video was the infamous stare moment from that Vlive (you know the one Kookie went out of his way to get Jimin to come to him lol), I still pushed it to the back of my head  and told myself it was just teasing, that JM and JK were playing around and that it must’ve been something that was normal for them to do.

Which brings me to the point I’m trying to make. I, as a lot of shippers, tend or prefer to think of themselves as rational and mature enough not to let themselves get too carried away with this whole thing. I turned thirty a little over a month ago, (that is, of course, in no way a certificate of maturity and rationality or even of moral to talk about a lot of things), but it surely can explain why I tend to be, most of the times, against about affirming truths and taking everything I hear as reality or facts. I’m still young but my age allows me the audacity to say I have gained enough experience so far to know that not everything that shines or looks like gold is in fact gold.

I follow a lot of accounts dedicated to jikook on IG and Tumblr but only a couple on YT, and from most of them I only expect cute moments and funny edits to entertain me and bring a smile to my face. There are only a few of them I actually take seriously because they make good points, with valid reasons and good analysis of facts and moments that are actually relevant and questionable.

A lot of people might not like this, but to me most of any ship moments are meaningless as proofs of a true relationship, or at least the way they are over analyzed really makes me cringe and wonder why am I even wasting my time on this, when people stretch a simple side hug or hand touching as a determining factor in this whole quest of proving a pair is actually a romantic couple. And let me make it clear that I’m not claiming that those moments couldn’t mean more than what they appear to be. What I want to highlight is that everything can have a meaning in a context. I’m not gonna be impressed by Jikook staring at each other fondly if I know they do that with everybody else or that they’re doing it as a joke or as part of an act or dare or something else.

To me the most important factor in differentiating Jikook from other ships, or to differentiate any ship from another actually, is to look at the big picture. Take a step back and look at their situation, at the kind of community or society they’re inserted in, at what is expected of them, and, to me this is a crucial point, at how they interact with each other vs how to they interact with other people that are just as close to them as their possible partner.

The point I see many non-shippers make is that we shouldn’t take any moments from a certain ship seriously because of the culture difference, because of fan service, and, the one that I really want to tackle, because the idea of two males actually being in love and/or in a relationship is unthinkable, preposterous or simply ridiculous.

The one about cultural difference I can accept to a certain degree because it is a fact and we can’t deny it. The world has become a small village and borders are becoming blurred when it comes to culture property and stuff, but it still doesn’t mean there aren’t considerable differences we should be aware and mindful of. No matter how strange and questioning they are to us, we still need to respect them and understand that just because we are used to our ways it doesn’t mean our way is the only right way.

With that being said, I also want to point out, that no matter how different our cultures and ways are, there are still some things that connect us all as human beings. Love, friendship and affection are some of those things. The way we express them might differ from place to place in some aspects but people everywhere experience them. And as things that connect us, I don’t think is ridiculous to say a person in Africa can identify a love relationship or friendship in Asia or America or anywhere else in the world. It’s really not that complicated.

About fan service, I have questions: seriously? Do people actually believe every time Jikook show affection for each other they’re acting? So, they don’t have a real life or family or personal opinions or free will? Are they just a product from BH that is willing to go through some extents just to please the fans without regards to their own will or personal lives? Come on, people!

Now to the ridiculousness that is the idea of Jimin, a man, and Jungkook, another man, being in love and/or in a relationship. I have questions too.

Why is it impossible for it to be a fact?

Why?

Why?

Is it a rare thing for there to be homosexual couples in our heterosexual midst? Are same sex couples an abnormality, even in our days and progressive society? Is homosexuality a made-up thing? Was it made up by delusional shippers with nothing else to do than to fantasize and fetishize two undoubtedly macho-man-that-could-be-anything-but-bros? Give me a break!

I am not affirming or claiming they are gay, or in a relationship or in love or are attracted sexually to each other. I honestly don’t care, and don’t think anybody should either, about what anybody does between four walls with whomever if there is consent and respect between all parties. It is none of our business what any of the boys like sexually, romantically or whatever.

I ship Jikook because it came a point when my reasonings, my trying to find plausible explanations for their actions that didn’t involve the possibility that there was something more than friendship between them became more delusional and cynical than to actually consider the chance that, ok, maybe there is in fact something there.

We can be careful on how we tread in this ship road; we have to be suspicious and try to see things from as many pov’s as possible so as not to cross the boundary from a healthy and unharmful shipping that is done for fun and get into delusional and invasive territory. But, denying the possibility that Jikook could be real just because one is, either  bothered by it because it is in the way of their own ship, or super bothered by the mere thought of ew gay, is absolutely ridiculous and pathetic.

[migleefulmoments]

That’s what makes no sense about their theory. On the one hand, Darren must stay in the closet no matter what or risk being sued for billions of dollars by “PR” and on the other, he and Chris send out secret signals hoping that we’ll catch on and know that they’re in love? On what level does any of that make sense

Exactly. On what level does it make any sense? It doesn’t.  CCers have fabricated a theory with more holes than lacy Swiss cheese. They simply ignore the flaws in their logic, the gaps in the story, and the catastrophic inconsistencies that prove their story is bullshit. Some of their “proof” is things they have simply said and repeated until and like Trump-if you repeat the lies enough times, your followers believe it. Some of their favorite lies: Mia kicked Darren; Mia hit him another time; Darren had a hicky on Red Carpet when Mia wasn’t in town; Mia and Ben had a Valentin’s day tryst at Mia and Darren’s home while Darren was in NYC; Ben lives with Mia and Darren; Michael introduced Darren to Mia on the Trevor Red Carpet; Ben and Mia had a relationship because he had his arm around her at the IHeartRadio event; Darren wears Chris’s ring on his right hand; Darren’s IDGAF pants; Darren is Froggy; Chris is Red; TSG is a Strip Club; TSG is failing; wearing a “God Made me Perfect” sticker was Darren’s coming out; Darren said “I’m gay” on periscope ;the mandate; Chris and Darren are married; they live together; Mia is lazy, laughs at Darren’s fans, is arrogant, taunts her money in fans faces ...and on and on and on. None of these are true no matter how many times they repeat them. I have seen all the “proof’ they have for each of these, they are nothing more than desperate attempts to rewrite history into their on fantasy. It is the sad desperation of angry woman, green with envy for a woman who is happily in love with a man who super cool, sexy, expresses his feelings, and is beyond talented. 

What motivation would Chris have to send secret messages to fans? Chris became extremely private after the first year or two of Glee. Footage from interviews and red carpets taken back then show a funny, relaxed, happy Chris who loved to talk about Glee and Kurt. But as the years went by, he shut down considerably. After he started dating Will, he became even more closed off; he spoke about not wanting to talk about his personal life because fans didn’t like it. He asked fans to stop with the CC speculation on Twitter.  He all but disappeared from his public social media (I have no idea if he has a private Finsta account). He is no longer the carefree, relaxed man he was in earlier interviews. He has talked about taking his position as a role model very seriously and that he works hard to avoid controversy. He’s talked about staying home a lot. 

So WHY would Chris share this kind of secret with strangers over social media.  Why would he put something out there for literally millions of people to analyze?  What benefit would HE get out of that arrangement? I can’t imagine anything. The idea that he is “driving this ship” and putting out hints for CCers- to show them the love is ridiculous -Chris gets nothing out of doing that expect a deep dark secret part of his life is put into the world and nobody who cares about their public image would put a cryptic secret into the world HOPING that other people figure it out and don’t misconstrue it.  Today’s media world is filled with butt hurt fans and misunderstandings. Chris wouldn’t take that chance. If he wanted people to know, Chris would set the record straight by being straightforward and telling everyone what he wanted them to know...like he did in STFF.  If Chris’ strategy is to post random IG “likes” and pics of I'm wearing  specific clothing in order to send out clues while he sits home and hops someone figures out that there is a consticting morality clause in Darren’s old Glee contract that is keeping them apart is pretty asinine. Getting “the truth out there” to a group complete strangers has no upside. I can see NO advantage to a few random people knowing Darren and Chris’s “truth”...that they are living a complete lie, that they are feeding the public misinformation and outright dishonest in interviews, that they are participating in stunts to deceive their fans. There are consequents to being a con artist or other kind of criminal -regardless of what motivates the person to do it- that is literally the plot of Breaking Back, Good Girls, Ozark, and The Americans. The CCers see themselves as “supporting their boys” and they are “collecting the facts” to share after Darren comes out since they are “not under a nondisclosure agreement”.  They also don’t know any ACTUAL FACTS but ya know....  

If I was caught in the middle of a morality clause that forbid me from being my true self,  I would want a lawyer to know the truth, NOT 6 random chicks from around the globe. Let’s suspend our disbelieve for a moment: Chris DOES want strangers to know that in 2018 his boyfriend husband is under a morality clause for a popular TV show the ended 3 years ago. How exaclty does wearing a “Star Wars” jacket to Disneyland (btw Disney OWNS Star Wars) be a clue to provides the information necessary for fans to understand this situation?  Come on, Chris is FAR more clever than that. If he wanted us to know something, he would tell us in a much more specific way.  

When they start with an obsession to CC and they work very hard to connect EVERYTHING Chris and Darren to CC, unrelated occurrences and actual coincidences will always relate back their CrissColfer fantasy...no matter how nonsensical or ridiculous it is.

I was going to add this to the notes, but I decided I had way more thoughts that need sharing. So here we go.

I cannot understand this weirdly desperate need some of you have to make something wrong with Jungkook, Jimin, and Jikook. The weird fictional narratives you are writing are seriously questionable. (And honestly its looking like another subset of this fandom that we do not need to be emulating) I swear y’all act like they were posting content on social media all the time before they got their IGs. Newflash they weren’t. Not even just about each other, but just in general.

Some of y’all need to take a step back and really look at the big picture. Like look at the actual facts.

I think there are several factors at play that are effecting how and why some of you might feel the way you do.

I personally think part of it is that Run BTS! is on hiatus. Once a week you could look forward to getting some kind of jikook interaction in the episode or the Run Behinds, and that with the occasional Bangtan Bomb and Behinds Episode release, it made it feel like you were getting a steady stream of jikook content to enjoy. Even if they were smaller moments.

Then there is what seemed like a ton of “loud” moments back to back, from Memories 2020 dropping, followed quickly by MOTS ON:E footage, and then NYC airport selfie, and then NYC moments…

(Which sidenote: I think that tricked a lot of y’all into thinking you needed to be getting a loud moment all the time, when that’s not actually the reality of jikook’s loud moments. Those have been pretty spread out over time. Someone please put together a timeline showing the “number of days gap” between the biggest moments pls! I need ppl to understand that just bc you can binge those moments after the fact doesn’t mean they happened that closely to each other.)

Anyway, while all of that was happening, we still had Run and In The Soop was airing, we got Jimin’s Bday Live, and we were anticipating PTD On Stage online show. There was A LOT happening all at once last fall, follow by like eighteen days of them in LA and tons of content happening all over the place.

In December in addition to the initial excitement of them getting their IGs and following members through learning how to use that app, and watching them enjoy the starts of their vacations, we also got all the GQ/Vogue content, and Season’s Greetings, so while we knew they’d official entered a break period, it didn’t feel like it at all.

So I’m going to give you all the benefit of the doubt (although my sister just told me I’m being too nice to do so) and just believe that you are all simply dealing with BTS withdrawal bc the consistent content we all enjoyed before isn’t happening right now. I know I personally miss BTS and Jikook a little more everyday, but I’m not creating insanely speculative narratives because of that.

The way some of these asks will state something as “fact” when it’s really just subjective opinion/interpretation. I need y’all to take a chill pill, and stop over analyzing everything they do or in this case don’t do.

Everything we know about jikook all the actual facts and knowledge we have about them from what they’ve shared with us about their relationship didn’t just go away because you aren’t getting a steady dose of new content from them.

For example if you go rewatch that vminkook vlive from LA, listen to what they said about how much time they choose to spend together, and know that we wouldn’t know that if they hadn’t told us in a TMI. We wouldn’t know just how much of their time in LA was spent in each other’s company. So maybe apply that same consideration to this break period. We don’t know anything about how much time they are or aren’t spending together right now, and we won’t ever know unless they tell in the future, but maybe just assume they haven’t completely changed who they are just bc they took a vacation time and got an extra social media account like…

Please people. Critical thinking skills!

JK has given no indication he's happy but its crystal clear he's trying to get JMs attention (23:08/11:08) & convey messages to him since JKs love language seems to be songs. Those songs aren't for us. He has a specific person in mind. Only JM said hes happy of the two. That doesn't mean cause of JK. I truly believe with all my heart Jikook have been together over 5 years, but rough patches happen & seems JMs sudden hospitalization probably woke up deeper feelings in JK & he's dealing with them.

He has seemed plently happy and fulfilled to me? Enjoying dancing, doing lessons, enjoying music, posting on his stories constantly sharing with us. He sounded plently happy on the phone call to Hobi when we heard him. Or how giggly he was in the OT7 insta videos when they filmed for samsung....

Why do yall want him to sad, upset or desperately trying to get Jimins attention? Jimin gives that to him literally whenever he wants it. He is busy, he seems happy, he is working hard. Sounds like a you problem, not a JK problem or a Jikook problem 🤷🏻‍♀️

*hesitantly slides my trollswapped kids for you to analyze* Rose Peixes (I thought Rose with a horrorterror for a mom figure would be a neat concept), Dave Ampora, John Vantas, Jade Megido

Rose Peixes! Queen of Alternia, with a shot for the throne, a giant huge large big thousand-tentacled lusus for a mom. Gl'bgolyb is a lusus that makes demands of her charge, but we know from Feferi that she also does engage with her child frequently. Feferi spoke with her lusus, and learned about the encroaching destruction of the universe from her, and then was also able to speak with other horror terrors, which were more vast and horrifying than their emissary, and make friends with them AND gain a boon, so what I can glean from that is that Gl’bgolyb, despite having relatively high demand, was also pretty warm and loving as far as lususes go. Maybe not an authoritative parenting style all across, because she did make high demands and there WAS threat of real and devastating consequences, but not all parents are perfect. Anyway, Rose, raised with all the power in the world, and a lusus that loved her but required some pretty tasking stuff from her with threat of killing her friends if she didn’t cooperate, would result in Rose being a very, very driven person, I think. The throne is hers to seize, if she can fight for it, Alternia is hers to govern, and Rose is not someone to half-ass things. She would be privileged, as anyone from that station would be, and maybe not fully understand the social order on account of being very young still, plus she would be socialized with Alternia’s definition of “fairness,” but I think she would be more concerned with personal achievement than doing stuff like Trizza tbh. She’s relentless, driven, always clawing for bigger, better, harder, faster, someone with a ravenous pursuit of excellence, someone who is dissatisfied with herself unless her idea of perfection is achieved. Rose Peixes and Azula from Avatar would probably be pretty similar tbeh. She’s here to WIN. As Seer of Life, Rose would be the one to foresee the “onward march of positive progress.” That’s pulled straight from the extended zodiac page, btw. Hussie tells us that Life players are “concerned with the betterment of themselves and those around them,” so Rose is all about seeing the way things can be improved, interested in using her sight to propel things forward, make them better, refine them, take the future by the horns and drive it in the direction of progress. Yes, she’s spoiled and privileged, and yes, she needs to learn that her own definition of progress might not always match with other’s, but Rose likes to learn and is quick to adapt to new information, so I have full confidence that Rose Peixes, Seer of Life, would be a harbinger of that which is good.

Dave Ampora, hmmmm. Well, his attention seeking ways are going nowhere. Dave gets raised at the top of the spectrum, full royalty, with only one person in all the world who outranks him by blood, and he just so happens to be childhood best friends/moirails with her. Definitely still a hipster, definitely still takes photographs of weird deep-sea shit and scenic ocean views, absolutely looks up to and adores his ancestor a lot, creating an ideal image of him in his brain that he tries to pursue. Living in the wrecked ship of his ancestor instead of an actual hive is also a very hipster thing to do sooooo. Probably doesn’t like it when people tell him that ancestors aren’t real, or that his was lame. Rose is probably the one telling him how lame his ancestor was tbeh. Dave VERY likely wouldn’t want to help Rose with feeding Gl’bgolyb, that doesn’t strike me as something Dave would want to do, or that Rose would need help with, so he’s more focused on the emotional and caretaking elements of their moirallegiance. Primarily: Rose go the fuck to sleep it’s 3 in the afternoon the sun’s been up for hours I don’t care if you haven’t gotten it “just right” yet you’re never gonna get it “just right” because you’re a fucking perfectionist now get inside your goddamned ‘coon you absolute madwoman or so help me god I’ll swim down there and dunk you in that pile of slime myshellf! Needs constant validation for himself, which on one hand, that’s fine, on the other, he doesn’t ever want to confront when he’s been the one to make a mistake, or that he’s the one who’s overstepped, and that’s something he has to work on and work through, as someone born into immense wealth and power. As Knight of Hope, his task is as the group cheerleader, sort of. He’s the one protecting and sustaining everyone’s ability to look up, look forward, he’s the one that helps and allows Rose to pursue that better future, he’s the one giving John the emotional support and assurance that yes, John is valued and loved and definitely one of the group and not an outsider, Dave is the one to offer Jade support when she thinks the world is resting squarely on her own shoulders and help her keep her cheery disposition, even when life looks hard. He is an odd mix of deeply empathetic and loving, but also selfish at times, and too certain of his own rightness.

John Vantas has a screechy dad and mutant blood, which means he’s really, really good at laughing off conflict. If someone is mad at him, it doesn’t really touch him, which, on one hand, is good for conflict deescalation because it means he’s never sending off the signals that would lead to a back and forth of conflict getting worse and worse and worse. On the other, it can make having serious conversations with him an ABSOLUTE nightmare, because John isn’t taking them SERIOUSLY and he needs to LISTEN! Probably also has a very fatalistic sense of humor, as a way of coping with the fact that he could die at pretty much literally any second. “Whoops, almost got hit by a bus, ahaha, should’ve moved into that street a little faster ;B” *minor inconvenience happens* “Guess I’ll die.” It doesn’t help that Alternia is really violent and unsafe just, like, in general. Every goddamned troll has PTSD and I will stand by that. But humor is John’s coping mechanism, as well as just, he’s a dude who likes a laugh. He’s here for a good time, not a long time. Since he’s a mutant, he defines himself in society primarily based on who he’s friends with! With the Heiress and a fishprince as his good friends, plus his dear sweet darling burgundy moirail, that makes him… relatively well off, actually? He’s not sure how this is happening, but he does know that he loves Rose Dave and Jade so so so so much and ngl I think flush DaveJohn and pitch, playfully-competitive “i’m a bigger little shit than you are” JohnRose would be… excellent… I ship everything y’all I don’t know what you’re expecting of me. He puts a LOT of stock in his relationships with his friends, which unfortunately means that he gets very depressed if he’s left alone for too long. He’s an extrovert with a blood mutation that makes it so he can’t actually GO OUT and engage in activities for fear of revealing his blood color. How does he deal with it? More fatalistic humor. Hahaha… he’s so lonely… haha… At least Jade knows, that’s probably an immense comfort, and when Dave and Rose find out Dave’s immediate assurances that they still love him and this doesn’t change anything would do wonders for John’s outlook on life, as is Dave’s role. As Heir of Blood, I mentioned this already but John places a LOT of his identity in his bonds with others. In many ways, his quest is learning how to balance that with constructing a personal identity. He’s a lowblood, offspectrum mutant on Alternia, that doesn’t allow for a lot of individual value to be placed on himself, so that’s something he’s got to learn and grow away from, but at the same time, his friends are his anchors, what keeps him sane and happy and healthy, so it’s important too for him to grow alongside them, entwined with them, part of their group, part of the whole, part of the community that is no longer stacked unfairly against him. It’s a balance, but he’ll find it.

Jade Megido, raised by a kangaram, low socioeconomic status but magic powers that can break mountains. Nothing can possibly go wrong with this. She’s pretty relentlessly positive, angry at the society that labels her as “lesser” but with a sort of learned helplessness about her that makes her think there’s nothing truly to be done to fight back against it. So fuck the system altogether then! She’s here for a good time, not a long time, her lifespan is short and that’s provided she can even make it that long! So she’s gonna go PET BARKBEASTS and DO SCIENCE and EXPLORE THOSE COOL RUINS NEAR HER HIVE and visit her moirail who she loves dearly. She doesn’t have any of the funding necessary to get the parts and chemicals that she needs on her own, but luckily for her Dave is a people pleaser and vastly wealthy and also flush with her moirail so she can pester him for favors. She fears neither god nor death, pass her some fucking robot parts. A real “Fuckit” mentality, I think, but here to have a good time! Still deeply compassionate as a person, and still lying about how sucky her situation truly is, to her friends and also to herself. She likes to think of herself as just making the most of a bad situation but really she’s just avoiding confronting the fact that Alternia really, really SUCKS for warmbloods and there’s nothing she, one single person, can do in the face of the vastness of it all. As Witch of Time, she is confronted with her own corpse again and again and again, forcing her to look at the fact that life isn’t fair and doesn’t care about her, that she’s mortal, that death comes for them all. But as Witch, she is given the opportunity to CHANGE things. She’s handed the ability to make a difference, to grab the Game and make it do as she tells it to. And so she must first confront her own mortality, and then step forward and change it, she must learn confidence and drive. She cannot just ignore or lie about her problems, she must fix them, and that is where her growth lies. This has some immediate backlash of making Jade think, once she realizes that change lies in her hands, that she is responsible for everything, and that the tables have been flipped entirely and she stands alone as the sole savior of their group. But Rose is there with her sight, and Dave is there with encouragement and compassion, and John is always there to help her, listen to her, talk with her, and Jade is not alone in this. As always, their success lies in all of their strengths working together, and they are triumphant as a team.

If Louis could actually be forced to fake a baby, and a baby is permanent so he can't escape that, then clearly evil management/Simon are trying everything to make sure Larry disappears. So why wouldn't theygo to a big Larry blog to see what they find fishy about it and see their theories? Like they could go all out and make sure every single theory is disproved, make Louis forced to be with Eleanor all the time. He was forced to move to LA for his fake son, wasn't he? So they could do anything?

@thelarrative does excellent riffs on this and you're right. If Louis' team/management/bossman/Simon really wants to destroy the idea of Larry and the larrie community, why stop where they've stopped? Why not fake get Eleanor fake pregnant with triplet fake babies? Why not have Louis go on random trump-esque homophobic rants on Twitter? Why not have him tell people he and Harry don't talk anymore and he doesn't want to, either? Why not force him to sell all his UK property? Why not make him take his sisters out of school and force them to babysit Freddie full-time?

Why not make him swap fake girlfriends every month, or just keep on fake partying by being papped going into clubs, drinking water, and leaving out the back to be papped again, really make him look like a cheating pussyhound the tabloids talk about instead of people having to analyze the calendar for when one of his relationships allegedly ended and his next relationship allegedly began to see if there's any overlap?

Why shouldn't they force Louis to post a Larry denial to his insta stories every day for a month? Why not fake hack his account and post pics (photoshopped or not) of him and Eleanor necking all over twitter? Why couldn't they stop him from wearing Polari clothing for a photoshoot, but had to insert a line about how a stylist picked those things out for him?  Why could they force him to get an E tattoo but not keep him from posting pics of his dagger tattoo to his IG? Why not just lock Louis out of his social media and post as him 24/7? How come they can only do this sometimes, but not other times?

Why can Louis get away with doing so "little," according to Larries, but also be forced to do (and involve his family in) so much?

Is Darren under contract forcing him to be anyone but Darren?

The most verbose CCer today shared once again her feelings about Darren’s engagement -which she so hilariously calls the “encagement” because she’s clever like that.  In response to an anon who feels like Darren had to be part of the engagement decision she writes:

 “Anon I respectfully disagree. D didn’t chose this complete disaster of an encagement. D is bound by contracts to RR, SS, M, and F/ox. They get to determine how he’s marketed.”

So let’s take this apart to the most basic question...”Is Darren under contract with Fox? He completed Glee and he completed ACS Versace so I have no clue why CCers feel like they can talk about this contract with a straight face.  According to CC lore, his Glee contract ran an extra year plus until they got the ACS contract to replace it, but now that contract is done as well.  At the most basic level Fox is in business to make money and paying its actors AFTER a project is completed is not a good business decision.  Darren would be the luckiest bastard in LA if he was getting paid by Fox for this long without producing any work.

Is Darren under contract with Ricky? Yes, Ricky and Darren have a contract but in this case Darren is the boss, he holds the power and  clearly, he is happy with Ricky’s work as he continued with Ricky after Ricky started his own company a few years ago.  In other words Darren RESIGNED with Ricky after he started his own company.  This is counter to the “Darren was so young and niave he didn’t know what he was signing trope”. There is nothing to suggest Darren isn't happy with Ricky’s work- they started Elsie together,  they are in Ricky’s 90′s Band together-I. can’t remember the name of it- and Ricky and is family are around for all of Darren’s big celebrations.  

“They get to decide how he is marketed” Well Yes, you hire the best people to represent you and market you in the best way.  Just like your doctor is the person you go to for health advice. Your doctor gets to choose how to care for your medical problems. But you get a say in that relationship.  Your doctor doesn’t get it just do whatever he feels like, harm you because it gives him glee.  In the same way that Ricky or Sunshine Sachs doesn’t get to control Darren against his best interests.   

Is Darren “under contract” with Sunshine Sachs? yes, but again it is like with Ricky...Darren doesn’t work for SS, rather they proved a service for him. Does Sunshine Sachs have any reason to want Darren out there lying to his fans about his personal life? No. If they feel strongly about a client staying in the closet- and I have no clue what their stance on that is but I will say that many CCers still argue about how hostile Hollywood is for gay actors so if they DO push a closet, it is only because of that hostility that you all continue to talk about.  Do I agree with it? No of course not. But if I was a PR person and I saw actors being ignored after they came out and I knew my client really wanted to be a celeb and work a lot, I would have to think about my advice to him or her. IN any event, it is the client’s decision whether to come out or stay in the closet.  Colton Haynes talks about it a lot and he always talks about the pressure he felt but he never said they “forced him” to stay in the closet.  You could argue that the pressure was a lot and it wore down someone who had ongoing mental health issues making him vulnerable to it, but he did come out after all of that and he hasn’t been sued for breaching a contract.  In the event a client does decide to stay I the closet, I guarantee any PR firm would recommend their client say as little as possible about their personal life. Think Kevin Spacey or Barry Manilow or Jodie Forster before they came out...none of them talked about their personal lives in interviews or on social media.  EVER. 

Is Darren under contract with Mia? This one is just so stupid I have to chuckle.  Because I would imagine if there is a formal contract between “beards and their gays” that it would be very short term. Nobody would want to be contractually obligated to continue a beard situation well beyond when they are done with it just because the contract is still valid. So arguing there is an 8-year contract that he can’t break is ridiculous.  But even more important to this CC-trope is the part where Darren is FORCED to give media publicity to Mia which is the only reason he takes pictures with her in public, pretends to be a couple, ever talks about her, etc..  IF Mia were an attention whore, hell bent on celebrity she would have an active social media life and she really has almost none nowadays.  She occasionally posts on Snatchat, she has a private IG that has remained private for years and she almost never Tweets anymore.  In today’s celebrity driven culture it is a given that anyone seeking fame has very active social media accounts- this is how we ended up with “influencers”.  But Mia has given up social media as Darren’s star has risen. Mia being in Darren’s photos with him is a glimpse into his life.  It doesn’t give her anything by way of celebrity. Without an active social media presence there is no way she can enjoy this supposed publicity and celebrity.  If she posted the pictures she would have people writing back to gush over her but that isn’t happening. I know the CCers believe fully that Mia runs sock puppet accounts and sends them anon’s. When I finished laughing at the stupidity of that, I analyzed what the hell they were thinking and it is still laughable.  Mia is happily living her life with Darren and has no time to troll a fandom of busy bodies who seek to make her life miserable. The FetusMiarren account is run by a French woman who thinks she is HILARIOUSLY sarcastic, but is in fact just plain rude. They believe it is Mia because FetusMiarrien hates Mia and at one point the main CCers convinced themselves that Mia hated Lea too.  Like all of the CC-tropes, that was all made up in their heads..  If Mia was running “fan” accounts she would be posting more interesting photos and private info in order to get the attention for it.
